Question

Dan threw 20 football at a moving target. 30% of his balls hit the target. How many balls did not hit the target?

Answer 1

Answer: 14

Explanation:

70% of balls did not hit the target, so multiply the number of footballs he threw by 70, then divide by 100 to find how many did not hit the target.

20 x 70 = 1400

1400 / 100 = 14

14 balls did not hit the target

Answer 2

Answer:14 balls did not hit the target.

Explanation:

Since 30% did, you would have to do 70% of 20.
